Flower Pot Desserts

The Pioneer Woman Cooks is a fantastic resource for party food. True to her reputation for fantastic dishes explained in detail with photographic how-to's, she has a new recipe perfect for spring parties: the flower pot dessert.



If you are hosting a tea, a shower, an end-of-school fete, or just a get-together that calls for something sweet, these might be just the ticket! She even has "boy" and "girl" versions (though I do like Gummy worms, myself.) I think you'll have just as much fun making these as you will eating them!
